'Child' in the Bible

My child, may you keep your father's instruction, and do not reject your mother's teachings,

My child, if sinners entice you, do not consent.

My child, do not walk in their way. Keep your foot from their paths,

My child, if you will receive my sayings, and hide my commands with you,

My child, do not forget my instruction, and may your heart guard my commands.

Do not despise the discipline of Yahweh, my child. Do not be weary of his reproof

My child, may they not escape from your {sight}; may you keep sound wisdom and prudence.

Listen, my child, take my sayings, and [the] years of your life shall be great.

My child, be attentive to my words; to my sayings incline your ear.

My child, be attentive to my wisdom, and to my understanding incline your ear;

Why should you be intoxicated, my child, by a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a foreigner?

My child, if you have pledged to your neighbor, [if] you have bound {yourself} to the stranger,

do this, then, my child, and save yourself, for you have come into {the palm of your neighbor's hand}: Go, humble yourself, plead with your neighbor.

My child, keep [the] commandment of your father, and do not disregard [the] instruction of your mother.

My child, guard my sayings; store my commandments with you.

A wise child [hears] the discipline of a father, but a scoffer does not listen to a rebuke.

He who withholds his rod hates his child, but he who loves him {gives him} discipline.

A child of wisdom will make a father glad, but a {foolish person}, he despises his mother.

A grief to his father [is] the child of a fool, and bitterness to her who bore him.

A foolish child is a ruin to his father, and the quarreling of a woman is a continuous dripping.

Discipline your child, for there is hope, but on his destruction do not set your desire.

Who has ascended [to] heaven and come down? Who has gathered [the] wind in the hollow of his hand? Who has wrapped water in a garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What [is] his name and what is the name of his child? For [surely] you know.
